Episode One Hundred Twenty Eight

Episode One Hundred Twenty Eight: "99 kinds of wings! 128 different dipping sauces! You love math, crunch the numbers on that - and tell me the possibilities aren't INFINITE!"
 

 This week, we start off with just Chris updating you on the news that does and doesn't matter. The reason that Chris is all alone is, Frank's wife delivered the baby! Listen to the show for all the details. We talk about Rush Limbaugh and the fact that he doesn't know not to insultingly imitate spoken Chinese. We recall the tragedy of the Space Shuttle Challenger explosion of 1986. Do you remember anyone else on that flight besides Christa McAuliffe? Didn't think so. We take a few minutes and tell you who else was on the doomed shuttle. From there, we have a few more stories then we take our first break.

After the break, we are joined by my wife, Ellen and we talk first about a subject our friend Jorge was discussing. What would improve students performance in school? Gender segregation and uniforms were two of his ideas, and we throw a few more suggestions into the mix.

 

Next, we re-cap some of the most recent things that we watched, running the gamut from "The Backyardigans," to "Primeval." We discuss the turn 30 Rock had taken toward the absurd as well as the direction Parks and Recreation and Community are going. Somehow, Chris manages to compare religion to Taco Bell, and Ellen almost spills where she works. All in all, it was a fun show to record.

 

Our last segment focuses on listener feedback and a challenge has been extended to the Are You Serious? Podcast. Will they take up the challenge? Tune in next week and see.
